Yes, but that doesn't preclude it from being used on my daily-use "production" desktop system. I have done that with Factory for years, but it looks like the change to "Tumbleweed" may mean that it gets too unusable for doing that - which actually sounds the wrong way around, given what the intent of this change was.

And in those years, you have never had a bigger issue than a tray icon not working? - Damn! KDE team must be doing one fantastic job!
They indeed have been in the past. And openSUSE has done a great job overall, any issues I had were fixed by some fiddling around or within a short time (other than the fact that I can't get auto-setting of DNS/resolv.conf to work so I can't use VPN on this machine and need to use the laptop any time I need VPN). But now they have broken things that I rely on heavily, and as I spend 60+ hours a week in front of this computer and I depend on IRC (Hexchat) heavily for work, breaking its tray icon is something I can't live with as I am required to react to pings on IRC fast. And losing session restore would mean a big hassle every morning and me being grumpy every day I start work.
Now what can you Robert do to keep your KDE 4? - Well we have this fantastic tool, OBS. Branch off all the needed KDE 4 packages from current Factory, de-link them, work on making them parallel installable with plasma, ask for help from fellow users that want to keep KDE 4 around, get everything working, get a devel repo, and submit the packages back to Factory, get them ack'ed in or not - in any case, KDE 4 can live on in a own repo - someone just needs to do the work, and one can not expect other volunteers to do it for you.
I don't have the time for that, I already have a 45h-per-week IT job. But thanks for pissing me off even more. KaiRo -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
